Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb zucchini
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp dried basil
- 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
- 1/2–1 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 475℉ and prepare a large rimmed baking sheet by greasing it with oil.
- Wash the zucchini, pat it dry, and slice it into 1/4-1/2 inch thick pieces, adjusting the thickness for your desired texture.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the zucchini slices with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and seasonings, ensuring everything is well coated.
- Spread the seasoned zucchini slices evenly across the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each piece for proper roasting.
- Sprinkle grated parmesan cheese on top of each zucchini slice.
- Roast the zucchini in the preheated oven for 20-24 minutes, adjusting time for your preferred level of doneness.
Notes
For a crunchier texture, slice the zucchini thicker; thinner slices will yield softer zucchini.
If concerned about sticking, consider lining the baking sheet, but this may retain moisture.
Adjust seasonings based on personal taste preferences.
